25-Hydroxycholesterol in health and diseases [PDF]
Cholesterol is an essential structural component of all membranes of mammalian cells where it plays a fundamental role not only in cellular architecture, but also, for example, in signaling pathway transduction, endocytosis process, receptor functioning ...

Cholesterol Metabolites 25-Hydroxycholesterol and 25-Hydroxycholesterol 3-Sulfate Are Potent Paired Regulators: From Discovery to Clinical Usage [PDF]
Oxysterols have long been believed to be ligands of nuclear receptors such as liver × receptor (LXR), and they play an important role in lipid homeostasis and in the immune system, where they are involved in both transcriptional and posttranscriptional ...

Inhibition of Marek’s Disease Virus Replication and Spread by 25-hydroxycholesterol and 27-hydroxycholesterol In Vitro [PDF]
Marek’s disease virus (MDV) causes a deadly lymphoproliferative disease in chickens, resulting in huge economic losses in the poultry industry. It has been suggested that MDV suppresses the induction of type I interferons and thus escapes immune control.

25-hydroxycholesterol: an integrator of antiviral ability and signaling [PDF]
Cholesterol, as an important component in mammalian cells, is efficient for viral entry, replication, and assembly. Oxysterols especially hydroxylated cholesterols are recognized as novel regulators of the innate immune response. The antiviral ability of

Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase suppresses avian reovirus replication by its enzymatic product 25-hydroxycholesterol [PDF]
Avian reovirus (ARV) causing viral arthritis/tenosynovitis and viral enteritis in domestic fowl has significantly threatened on the poultry industry worldwide. ARV is a non-enveloped fusogenic virus that belongs to the Reoviridae family.

25-Hydroxycholesterol exacerbates vascular leak during acute lung injury [PDF]
Cholesterol-25-hydroxylase (CH25H), the biosynthetic enzyme for 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC), is most highly expressed in the lung, but its role in lung biology is poorly defined.

Are side-chain oxidized oxysterols regulators also in vivo?
Oxsterols are oxygenated metabolites of cholesterol that are short-lived intermediates or end products in cholesterol excretion pathways. They are present in very low concentrations in mammalian systems, always accompanied by a high excess of cholesterol.
